Hatsune Miku Live Party 2011 - Rave 18 Movie Theater - 11/10/11


Personal bias: I've seen Hatsune Miku in concert.

The crowd: Junior high and early high school kids, many with their parents.

Random notebook dump:
I'm listening to kids scream during a concert film for a singer who isn't human. The line between fiction and reality may not exist much longer.

In response to your notebook dump, fans cheer for Miku and the other Vocaloids because they are a culmination of the passion of the fandom.  Fans know full well she isn't "alive" (a running joke is saying, "She exists in my heart!").   It's the suspension of disbelief; that willingness to get caught up something that the audience knows is not "real".  The passion and skill, however, of the producers, programmers, artists, musicians, fans, and etc. are real and the audience cheers for that just as much as they do for the Vocaloids.

You could have interviewed the people in the front and found out a lot more.  I can safely say this seeing as how I'm one of them.  My group, the one with multiple glow sticks weren't kids but adults.  I'm not sure if you were given the pass as a member of the press or had to order it yourself, but the event organizers (Live Viewing Japan) actually encouraged that behavior.  Their website states, "Please enjoy the screening as a live event, so please feel free to clap and wave penlights."  Furthermore, we were going to stay seated but we were encouraged by the LVJ staff to stand, cheer, shout, and wave our glow sticks.

The theatre staff encouraged us, grown adults, to stand up and wave our glow sticks. In fact, the event flyers advertised that the screening was supposed to be treated like a real concert performance.

Hatsune Miku).  Fans know full well she isn't an actual person (the running joke is saying, "She exists in my heart!").   It's the suspension of disbelief; the willingness to get caught up something that the person knows is not "real".  The passion and skill, however, of the producers, programmers, artists, musicians, fans, and etc. are real and the audience cheers for that just as much as they do for the Vocaloids.
